Need Greaters in Ecuador, Starting from scratch...



Apartments come completely empty. We had to start shopping for a fridge, stove, and everything else a functioning kitchen needs. Also a washer, water filtering system, furniture etc. To move in we just got the most basic stuff, the stove, fridge a bed and a mattress. Later on we started getting everything else that makes a house a home. 
Below we are including a list of things we purchased. We are including this because it will be very helpful for those of you that share our same goals. It will give you just an idea of how much is needed just to get set up. There's a lot of small stuff needed for a house that is not included here, but here is the main big stuff. 

List of purchases:
$380 Stove (Coral stores)
$680 Fridge (Indurama)
$230 Ozone Water system
$210 Guest bed/mattress
$540 Master bed set/mattress
$870 Living room set
$350 Dinning room set
$190 Tv stand 
$90  Desk
$120 Bathroom furniture


Gas Stove

New blog

Hello everyone

Like a lot of you know, we moved to Ecuador March this year. We have already been here 9 months and we are loving it. We decided to take time to create this blog to share some of the amazing experiences and adventures we are living in Ecuador. We'll be posting photos, updates and maybe some videos about our experiences and about life in general here in Ecuador. 

I hope you all enjoy it. Please leave comments and ask all questions you like. 

Lots of love,
Massi n Ben
